I had this problem when I used mdk7.2. the reason was that there was a
script, under /etc/X11/windowmanagers (I'm not so sure of the correct
path 'cause I haven't a mdk box now, so check it :), that launched the
enlightenment-install script before E itself. so enlightenment-install
did rewrite xinitrc to the default one. don't know if it's your case,
it's just my 2 cents :)
